hi fellows,

this is a worrying issue for me,

i used to fly with an ex-raf,ex-east african airways brit captain who was flying a c-421 in the country privately for a privale company, because he was too old to hold a valid cpl,he had spent most of his time in this country and although he had family in the u.k he said he couldnt handle the cold there..eventually he gave up flying and i last heard he was in an old peoples home in the uk somewhere..what a way to spend a retired life..i sure hope this doesnt happen to any other fellow aviators....

keep it up there fellows,

no more 406pilot...

no wonder some of us are obsessed with the idea of of flying fast and dying young...
